I want to final install the fuel tank and run the rudder cables before covering the fuselage so I needed to get the tank painted together with one section of the floor which the rudder cables run through. Today was dull but dry so it was an opportunity to get these done together with some other bits and pieces. The paint is a catalysed polyurethane which dries to a hard finish. As usual painting outside a selection of the local flies decided to embed themselves in the wet paint but hopefully these will polish out once the paint is fully dry.
